AA use la1n has created a new homebrew title for the great and powerful Vectrex:  vecZ.  The game will launch at the launch gameZfestival (http://www.gamezfestival.ch/) on November 5th.  The festival takes place in Zurich, Switzerland.

vecZ is a shoot'em up which tries to emulate those games from the 80's by having a gameplay that requires precise timing that offers a lot of action.
